The third position is the
Second Recline Position
and is also known as the “Full Recline” position.
This position is ideal for patient treatment, rest and reading.
To Achieve Third Position / Second Recline Position:
• By the patient: From the First Recline
Position, continue to push against the back
by placing your hands on armrests and
continue to recline yourself to the Second
Recline Position. To bring yourself up, place
hands on armrest and pull yourself up while
leaning your body forward away from the
recliner back while at the same time pushing
down evenly on the footrest with your legs.
• Reclining by attendant: Standing on either
side of the recliner, grasp the armrest with
one hand and push handle with the other
hand. Push back on push handle to recline. To
return, grasp push handle and pull forward to
raise the recliner back.
Info: Due to the 450 lb (204.1 kg) weight
capacity, EVENLY DISTRIBUTED, the Series
FR587W Recliner has two gas pistons to assist
in the recline and return of the back. One piston
assists during the rearward movement of the back, the other piston assists during the return of
the back to an upright position. For this reason, in order for the gas piston to operate properly, a
person of at least 150 lb (68.0 kg) should be sitting in the recliner.
Trendelenburg Position (Also Known as Shock Position)
Info: This position can only be achieved by a caregiver.
Standing at the back of the recliner, grasp the
push handle with one hand while actuating the
Lever located on the rear push handle with
other. Slowly guide the back down fully until it
stops and release the lever. If the articulating
headrest is in the forward position, push back
so that it is even with the back of the recliner.
Trendelenburg Position can be obtained from
any position.
To bring recliner out of Trendelenburg, stand
at the back of the recliner and actuate the lever
shown in upper right picture. Slowly guide the
back upright and release the lever. The recliner
can then be placed in the desired position.
